Legendary National Hunt jockey Terry Biddlecombe has suffered a stroke this weekend.
The three-times champion jockey was taken ill on Saturday and is currenty undergoing treatment at the John Radcliffe Hospital at Oxford.
The 69-year-old was heavily involved in the development of three-times Cheltenham Gold Cup winner Best Mate, as assistant trainer to his wife, Henrietta Knight.
Speaking on her website, Henrietta Knight reported: " He is in the Stroke Ward - and looks like remaining there for a while until he can swallow and speak properly.
"Currently he is being fed by a drip and by a tube directly into his stomach. It looks very uncomfortable but he seems fairly peaceful."
